Anthony Van Dyck vibrant in Killarney
He did it really nicely today. They went a good gallop out in front and around here it's not easy to make up ground so I just wanted to get him rolling early. Once I got a few slaps into him he really picked up. He'd give you a similar feel to Kew Gardens [a winner her last year] and I think he's a smart horse. There are sharp bends here and there were a few people around in high-vis jackets and with two year olds like that they don't concentrate. He went through the rails before he knew what he was doing, it was just greeness.
Miss Zizi and Davis team up for victory in Killarney
She has been doing her best and running well but has been struggling to get into this winners' enclosure. Everything went well today and she made the running and is genuine and keeps going. We'll keep her in the same grade and she could come back here in August and this track suits her. Sean (Davis) had a few rides for us last year and had one winner which was here but he didn't finish in front on the day and was second but the winner was later disqualified when something came up in the sample. He's a good lad and when he came down to ride for me last year he was claiming 5lb but due to the new rules now claims 7lb. The 7lb made all the difference today.

I thought she'd need another run as she is a lazy filly at home. She has plenty of ability but is going through the motions in her work but I had to get her out at Gowran. She'd like soft ground if she could get it and it's safe ground here and it ended up a little slower than we expected and she managed to wake up enough to win. She will have learned a lot from that and she has a great pedigree and is lovely looking. We'll see how much she improves now and will look for a handicap with her next.
